    Cloud Dough Question

    I am going to try it! With vegetable oil, that's what I've got, someone said it worked, and I have young toddlers who will eat anything. Mineral oil does not sound toddler friendly to me...


    Ok, so does it vacuum up out of carpet? It's kind of cold outside....

    I had mine use it at the kitchen table so it was easy to vacuum up.

      Mine was a little tough to get out of the carpet. I ended up using some carpet spot cleaner to get it all the way out. Next time I'll put down a cloth or do it in the kitchen where I have tile.

        I made my with veggie oil and it worked fine We didn't get much on the floor and it vacuumed up fine...I do prefer to use it outside.

        I think i would also have worked better if I had a sand/water /sensory table type set up.


        I used big round serving trays with place for dip in the middle (walmart) but I might try it in a big tub next time.....higher sides less mess?

          I buy a bag of the foil pans at Sam's Club. I use them for the rice, indoor sand, or in this case, the cloud dough. I set them on a large cookie sheet so it keeps most of the mess off of the table and floor, not all though.

            um....

            Whats cloud dough?

            Sounds fun.

            I made "pumpkin" (orange and scented with pumpkin pie spice) playdough last night and they were over the moon about it.

              Ok, I don't get it! It's just like having damp sand. Did I do something wrong? I feel like I should add some eggs, butter, vanilla, baking powder, and sugar and have some really awesome sugar cookies...
